A Candlelight At Midnight Poem by Istabraq Al Ahmadi
A Candlelight At Midnight
Whenever I gaze at the candlelight
in a silent room at midnight,
with its flickering flame float
my thoughts that freely over rupture gloat.
And to Eden sail in a seraphic boat
tied to the crimson pulse of the heart.
And in a fiery trance, my soul sways
like melting wax, drops in the old happy days,
when, as a boy blessed with glee,
I roamed the fields and felt free
to gaze with wonder at every tree
that drew from me homage and praise.
And when, as a child of nature, I
was never taught to utter a single sigh
or to shed tears at years bygone
or to shun the bucolic beauty of the sun
which, with love, in my veins run,
and dipped in the deep azure sky.
Bursting with a beauty that is both creative and compelling,
My poem is bursting with beauty the same as your heart is bursting with kindness! Thanks a lot

Often I will sit outside by candlelight writing poetry, glancing at it's flame bowing and flickering before me, your poem brought this to mind in a memory, as it brought back old happy days written in your poem. Candlelight seems to be so delicate in thought, drawing wonder from one's mind to write about. Delightful and enchanting poem which I thoroughly enjoyed! Thank you for sharing. RoseAnn
